WESTMORELAND COUNTY, Pa., April 29, 2024—Intervala, a premier full-service electronics manufacturing services provider, and Westmoreland County Community College (Westmoreland), an accredited public community college headquartered in Youngwood, Pa., have teamed up to create a comprehensive electronics technician training program.
Westmoreland’s Workforce Development team worked with Intervala’s senior engineering staff to develop the program curriculum, which focuses on providing the practical knowledge, circuit theories and hard skills required in professional electronics technicians. Coursework and laboratory training are conducted at Intervala’s manufacturing facility in Mount Pleasant, Pa.
Intervala contacted Westmoreland with the idea for the training program to support the company’s expanding need for skilled technical staff. Collaborating with Byron Kohut, Ed.D., dean of the School of Technology, Intervala was able to design a program to meet the needs of its current staff and provide a pathway for those who may wish to pursue a degree or additional training.
“Our customers are leading innovators in the defense, medical, industrial, semicap, and other technology-driven industries,” said Teresa Huber, Intervala president and CEO. “The increasing sophistication of their products demands Intervala be committed to continuously upskilling our workforce and capabilities. In this case, that’s meant hands-on involvement in developing the workers we need to serve our customers. The program will help our current technicians take their skills to the next level and maintain the high level of quality and reliability we need on the production floor.”
“Our partners around the region know that we are here to support their training needs,” said Tuesday Stanley, Ed.D., president of Westmoreland County Community College. “Our Workforce Development team works directly with companies to help them develop their staff, increase their skills and, overall, create a highly skilled workforce in the region, often providing recruitment opportunities for students. This partnership with Intervala highlights the investment by Intervala and its team and the forward-thinking approach to advancing the workforce of the region by the community college.”
